1 P11D System Integrators Guide

2 Pre-Installation Checks Before installing the P11D software, please ensure that you have read and understood the following notes: Hardware requirements The P11D software requires the following: Pentium based PC. Microsoft Windows 98/2000/ME/XP. 64 Megabytes of memory (minimum, 128 Megabytes recommended). 50 Megabytes of free disk space for the basic system, plus enough to store any client files that may be created. A laser printer with 16 Megabytes of memory The following points should be also considered: Do you have sufficient rights to install the software? You require Read, Write, Create, Erase and Modify rights to the directory where you wish to install the software. Do you have Administrator rights on the computer? This is required for the first running of the newly installed software. After it has been run once by an Administrator it can be run under a user login. System requirements Microsoft Internet Explorer: Version 4.01 SP2 (or higher) is required, and version 5.5 or later is recommended. This can be downloaded from Revenue Online services: Revenue Online services require the Microsoft Internet Explorer High Encryption Pack, we recommend using Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.5 or later with the high encryption pack. To verify that the high encryption pack is installed, launch Microsoft Internet Explorer and choose Help - About Internet Explorer. If the high encryption pack is installed the Cipher Strength setting will be 128-bit; lower values require the high encryption pack to be installed. Further details are available at: 2 of 7

3 Under Windows 98, the year 2000 critical updates must also be installed. These can be found at: and Windows 95 and NT 4 Workstation Please note that Microsoft retired Extended Support for Windows 95 on 31 December 2001 and retired Extended Support for Windows NT4 Workstation on 30 June 2004, as detailed on the Microsoft support website: This means that we are unable to guarantee support for Windows 95 and Windows NT4 Workstation. While we will continue to provide P11D support as usual, if you have an issue that is a result of using an unsupported operating system, we will not be able to assist you..page 3 of 7

4 Software Installation Installation Image Structure The P11D installation is a Microsoft Windows Installer (Version 2) installation package, which was authored using InstallShield Developer The installation image on the CD consists of the following files: SETUP.EXE* AUTORUN.INF DOCS\*.* PYEARS\*.* Launcher for the installation CD AutoRun Documentation Installation images for prior year versions of P11D. *If the software is download from the internet setup.exe is the only file available for download SETUP.EXE can be decompressed to the files below using the command line switch /b e.g. Setup.exe /b"c:\cache Directory". To give the following files: P11DXXXX.MSI Microsoft Windows Installer database, this can be analysed in an appropriate package. Installation Properties During the installation the values of several specific public properties are set via the installation dialog screens. These properties allow access to the software and determine the destinations of the files to be installed. These properties are: Property Dialog Description INSTALLDIR ISX_SERIALNUM [ProgramFilesFolder] Deloitte\P11D20XX Destination location for Program files (local only) Product Serial Number These properties can also be set on the command line, for example if the installation is to be launched silently. Note that the Serial Number must be entered without hyphens. An example command line to install the package with a basic user interface would be: Setup.exe /v ISX_SERIALNUM=ABCDE FGHIJ INSTALLDIR=C:\Progra~1\Deloitte\P11D Repackaging the Installation If you need to repackage the installation in order to deploy the application within your organisation, you are free to analyse and extract the information and files from the msi and cab files..page 4 of 7

5 P11D Installation on Windows Terminal Services or Citrix P11D can be run under Windows Terminal Services or Citrix. On the terminal services machine: Log in to the machine using an account with the equivalent of local Administrator rights If you have remapped the boot drive on your Citrix or Terminal Services server to a drive letter other than C:\, then you will need to create a virtual C:\ drive for the period of the installation. For example, if you have remapped the drives on your Citrix or Terminal Services server to F:\, then go to Start > Run and type in cmd if you are on Windows NT, 2000, XP or The command prompt will be displayed. Type in the following: subst c: f:\ This will create a virtual drive mirroring the F:\ drive. In the actual installation the paths will still correctly default to the F:\ drive. You should not specify the virtual drive in installation paths. Install the P11D software choosing the local install option. Run the P11D software on the machine; check that the install is functioning correctly Users require read and write access to the application directory so that they can access configuration files, template databases, and error logs. The functionality within P11D uses a third-party component IDSMail, which requires the licence file to be copied into an individual users profile. This license file xxxxxxxx.id$ (where xxxxxxxx can be any eight characters) is installed into the administrators profile (e.g. C:\WTSRV\Profiles\administrator\Windows folder). This single licence file can be used for all terminal services users, however it must be copied into their individual "Windows" folder if you wish to use functionality. For example, you need to put the licence file in the following folders for users User1 and User2: C:\WTSRV\Profiles\User1\Windows C:\WTSRV\Profiles\User2\Windows From a remote machine: Setup a shortcut to the P11D executable file in the remote program directory Run the P11D program.page 5 of 7
